HOUSTON — Fast Rx Transfer announced Friday that it has signed a deal with Benasource. a newly formed Pharmacy Buying Group with nearly (60) retail pharmacy outlets across the U.S. Under the terms of the agreement Fast Rx will offer its patented one-way and two-way, cloud-based, prescription transfer solution to member stores in exchange Benasource will adopt Fast Rx as a preferred prescription transfer supplier adding to its fast-growing network of digital suppliers backed by clinical evidence. The deal was brokered by Rochester, N.Y. based AshHEALTH.

As COVID-19 hampers pharmacist ability to staff stores, Benasource was looking for a digital healthcare tool that easily and quickly transfers prescriptions between divergent pharmacy systems operating from different locations.

Vinesh Darji, president for Benasource stated, “We measured Fast Rx Transfer for its safety, stability and platform speed against the existing, traditional process that our members use, which is typical of most pharmacies. We found that, not only did Fast Rx Transfer save each member significant time per transfer, the process was error-free, and efficient when transferring, or receiving prescriptions ‘into’ and ‘out of’ our pharmacy prescription dispensing queue; this of course was extraordinary.”

Darji further explained, “Prior to COVID-19 it was taking our members an average of twenty- minutes for processing a prescription ‘into’ and ‘out of’ their pharmacy software. However, Fast Rx’s automated Fast Rx Transfer solution helped staff complete transfers in less than one-minute per transfer, you can imagine our excitement to roll it out across our member base.”

Fast Rx Transfer was founded by two pharmacist – formerly Walgreens and Kroger’s regional pharmacy leaders who left their prestigious jobs, and ventured into pharmacy ownership where they discovered, and then patented Fast Rx Transfer’s unique one-way and two-way cloud-based, digital prescription transfer solution. The entrepreneurs recently partnered with AshHEALTH, naming the company founder, Ashton Maaraba, an industry power broker as the company’s managing partner, board member and lead advisor.

The partnership with Benasource is a testament to the hard work and commitment Fast Rx has delivered to pharmacist and the profession, “we are excited to work with Benasource and to serve their members” added, William Parker, CEO.
